towing GVs

my wish is. if your gv is damaged, dead engine or damaged track, a friendly gv should be able to tow you to a save place.
for example you lost a track near a enemy base, than the base is taken and supplies are out. and you are 200yards away from a runway and you have 20 kills or more, a squady is beside you but he can do nothing  :frown:. so it would be really cool if a friendly can pull or tow me to the runway.
or in other situations out of the danger.

what do you think?

I think this is more trouble than it's worth. If you get hit it's your own fault, live with it... You still get the perks, they're simply not multiplied.

I say no. You already can resupply in GV or just exit and get successful landing if there are no enemies around, in plane you have no options but exit and got a ditch.

If squadies really want to help you they can bring you supply from neighbour fields or clear place so you can land from there you are.

ok, its my own fault, but every tank can tow a damaged tank if its need in real life. it would be only a nice option. sure you can bring suply 70miles away but towing a few meters would be a better option i think. ;).
and often its only a few meters to bring your tank back in savety, and often suplys are not an option, expezialy if your field is under attack.
i want it only as an nice extra option. and be sure it would be used alot by the hardcore tank drivers.

an other wish is, every tank crew can fix his track yourself, if you lost your track you sould be able to fix it in about 15-20 min.

i think you should have the option to repair your tracks if you hit a buton when you are not shooting and you cant shoot while it is being repaired

I was thinking about that idea should only take 5 minutes or less.

Its very annoying when your in the middle of a field and lose your engine and can do nothing but wait for that lucky round to give you a 'quick trip to the tower'.

Definetly all for it, danke sir.  :aok

Again, think about plane stopped just few meters away from concrete with dead engine. In GV you have a chance already.

an other wish is, every tank crew can fix his track yourself, if you lost your track you sould be able to fix it in about 15-20 min.

You can do it right now. Waiting for supply can take ever less time and you can fix any damage, not only tracks.

Your suggestions are not for improving gameplay but for saving scores. Therefore its not gonna happens, most probably.

@Rmrider thanks, nice to see that only one can see what i mean.

@Oleg i dont think about saving scores, i say it would be a nice adition some times.
 lately a read a book from otto carius, and he telled a stroy about his damaged Tiger, he lost his water radiator and was under havy fire, so the crew cant get out to fix it or to but the cables from a secound tiger to tow him out of the fire....
so what happens?!   the secound tiger pusched  his tiger all the way back out of the fire so the crew were now able to but the towing cables on it.
i remebered much of situations like this i have in the game, in wich i were very lucke if some of my frinds were able to take me out of the fire to a saver place were i can wait for the suply.

i dont understant why you dont like this idea...did you never have situations like that??? i can imagine.

Then we could add the Bergepanther for towing them or giving them tracks or wheels because they lost there.

jes a repair vehicle would be cool too, if he get close to you he could raipar all your damaged step by step and it would take some Min's.
but than supply are only need to get new ammo, but if we have a bergepanther ..why not??

a nother thought in this direction would be a truck which could pull your damaged airplan out of the mud back on the runway so you dont need to ditch.....@ oleg i dont think at the score.....it would only luck nice if there were more life on the airfields...maybe this truck ware able to fix your damage in some Min's.....OK OK i can easy take a new bird but for me i like it to fly the same bird for a few hour's, so my motivation get higher and higher to save my life and so i fly more realistic..i think .....and this would be a step to improve the gameplay because with a bird which i fly a few hoers i will never try a HO.......and with that 5min birds i will do it earlyer i think.

and another thought would be a fire dept. if you fight the fire in a hanger you can lower his down time for example.....
